For what it's worth, the comma bug seems to show up on less-commonly-tagged items. FRC1712 tags fine, as does Robot, but I can't get anything FVC to work (FVC111, FVC96, FVC123, etc.), and those wouldn't have been tagged that way before. (I uploaded the only FVC Orangeburg images that I know of, and none were tagged with anything other than the ones from when they were imported from the old gallery.)

I'm 90% sure I found the comma bug -- let me know if it re-appears.

Looks to be working again. Thanks!

I guess one of the problems I am noticing with the new CD Media system is that a LOT more photos are being uploaded. This means that they get knocked off of the front page really quickly and I don't get to see them all.

There's not really much you can do about it, but I wish there was an easier way to browse all the new photos since the last time I logged in.

I could probably figure out and use the same method that vBulletin uses to show new threads .. I'll add it to my list.

I noticed a bit of a bug. I went to http://www.chiefdelphi.com/media/photos/23665, but 23664 is another picture of me. The latter doesn't show. But when I click the one before (the one of Ashley Weed) and then click next, I get 23664 (the one with me giving the cheesy thumbs-up).

By the way, is there any way to take one of those pictures and make it my WAI?

2 things.

For some reason I was trying to add a tag just now and the system would "add" it and the tag would never show up. It seemed to eat up my suggestion. Don't know if this is temporary or not. (i used quotes)

I just found a few pictures where someone forgot to use quotes and there are about 20 words used. Can you put a limit on the number of tags or have some alert to moderate it? Just voting no to every single word seems like it can be avoided otherwise.

Otherwise I love it. I think i spend too much time on it.

For now, vote against all of them -- the bad ones will go away soon.

I'm going to be adding a little helper that pops under the tag box, suggesting tags for you as you type (similar to Google Suggest, but not as cool). I'm hoping this will help out those who may not know the normal/usual/proper tags to use on some of these photos.

If it doesn't add .. it may think it's already there. Send me PMs with links to the photo/paper you've had issues with and I'll scan the error logs for what happened. Without a link, though, I can't find it (it's huge!).

Thanks!

Weird -- it's because the upload date/time is exactly the same on them -- it only happens 40some times out of 11k photos. I'm guessing since we allow multiple uploads this problem will just increase. I'm workin on it ..

FAQ ;) (add "who am i" tag, then the little name tag icon will show up to make it your WAI)

Please keep the user in mind when tagging. For instance, I was tagging the state maps I made a while back, and realized that not only should they be tagged by full state name, but also by state abbreviation, since both are possible to be searched upon.

(Unless we make a rule about it. As far as I know, there is none.)

Additional note: Maine's state abbreviation, ME, gets entered as "me", which some have already started using as a tag.

Re: CD-Media
 
Yes, 'ME' should be for maine, and "Who Am I?" should be used for 'me'. I"ll update the case of "ME" to reflect that.

I think adding both 'Maine' and 'ME' is a good idea. We already add three or four tags for regionals -- the more we have, the better it is (within reason, of course).

Re: CD-Media
 
I need some input on some ideas I had, please

Should we allow people to retract and/or change their votes on tags? Sometimes, after thinking about it (or after making a mistake) I've wanted to change my vote. Should this be allowed, if so, when? ..is your vote final, and let others form a majority and pass/fail the tag addition?

Should I add in notification (via email) on any of the following:
-Your image gets a new tag.
-Your tag gets voted on.
-Your tag makes it through the voting cycle.
-Your tag doesn't make it through the voting cycle.
-Your tag gets put back through a voting cycle (essentially a delete).
-A tag you voted on gets voted on.
-A tag you voted 'yes' on gets a majority 'no'.
-A tag you voted 'no' on gets a majority 'yes'.

I think voting should act like a poll or rep, Once you click it it is over.

as for the notification system i am all for it as long as you can turn it off in your user cp

I could also possibly provide these as lists.

I agree with this. Once you vote, it should be final.

Maybe you can make those stats about your tags/images available within the User CP. Having them sent via email is ok, as long as I can turn the option off.
